Company

ABK PTE. LTD. (Formerly know as Jos. Hansen Singapore) was incorporated in 1974 and we have been in the business of supplying high quality building materials in South East Asia.

We represent architectural award winning brands Agrob Buchtal, Jasba and Steuler from Germany and since the 1970s, we have supplied ceramic tiles and façade panels to many prestigious projects locally and regionally.

Through our knowledge and services over the years, ABK has become a connecting point between Developers, Architects, Contractors and Owners.

Our History

Our Vision & Beliefs:

In today's competitive building material supply environment where pricing is normally the major deciding factor, we strive to distinguish ourselves from our competitors by focusing on supplying products that are uncompromising in quality, excellent in design and extremely durable.

The factories that we represent all adhere to Environmental Product Declarations which means that not only are the production facilities modern and environmentally compatible, there is constant improvement of product quality and exemplary recycling methods.

We strongly believe in the promotion of sustainability in the building industry and strive constantly to raise environmental awareness among developers, designers and builders with the use of modern and environmentally friendly innovations such as the use of HT coatings on our tiles.

As one of the leading suppliers in the field of swimming pool tiles, (more than 400 swimming pool references) we have a wide color range of tiles and mosaics with matching accessories offering complete solutions for private, leisure, therapeutic, to FINA standard competition pools.

At many of the best hotels in Singapore such as The Ritz Carlton, St. Regis Hotel & Residences, and W Singapore Sentosa Cove, you will be able to find our premier tiles and mosaics.

As the market leader in the supply of tiles and accessories for FINA approved competition pools, more than 90% of all competition pools in Singapore are our projects. One of our projects, Singapore Sports School hosted the 1st ever Youth Olympics Games in 2010 and we also supplied the tiles for the OCBC AQUATIC CENTRE at Singapore Sports Hub.

Facades

Supplying environmentally friendly "self-washing" façade panels is another area that we have moved into and a few projects we can mention is Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital, NUH Medical Centre, St. Regis Hotel and Residences and Graduate Medical School (Duke-NUS).

Along with the supply of quality materials, come our practical experience, expertise and consultancy on any technical, architectural or installation problems in the field of ceramics.

Shop-drawings with plans, sections, details and assistance in quantity take offs are just some of the extra services we provide.

Representing Quality and Innovation

At ABK, we are always looking to introduce quality materials into the market. In 2016, ABK became the official partner for Steuler’s Tiles group in South East Asia.

Steuler is one of the largest manufacturers of tiles “Made in Germany”, producing more than 16 million square meters of tiles per year for the national and international markets.

Ceramic products have been manufactured under the Steuler name, at the Mühlacker site, since 1917. To date, Steuler's excellent reputation remains intact. Based on their expertise in tile production, which has been accumulated over decades, they have been able to set benchmarks and to continually develop new manufacturing techniques. Hence, it’s no wonder that Steuler-Fliesen GmbH is one of the most innovative tile plants in the world.
